Pathways to Postsecondary Success

For students to be more career and college ready, educational leaders must start working together.  That was the message shared January 15 at Southwest Minnesota State University during the last of six Pathways to Postsecondary regional leadership summits.  Minnesota State Colleges and Universities and Department of Education staff have been traveling around the state promoting an ongoing dialogue between secondary and postsecondary leaders.  Their message challenged school leaders to think of all students and consider the labor market trends that will dictate the types of jobs that will be available.   Upcoming webinars and more extensive meetings will keep the conversations moving as leaders decide the best course of action to ensure student success.
